Industrial workers and safety managers face daily threats, safety, and compliance obstacles daily on the job site. Whether ensuring equipment is in good health or planning in the case of workplace incidents, employees and safety managers are looking to mitigate risk around every corner, every day. That's why Twiceme was designed to help address these issues and protect individuals both before and after an accident by empowering workers and employers with powerful technology accessible via a smartphone application to make the process easier through digitization.
With Twiceme's next-generation, contactless near-field communications (NFC) sensors, which are installed directly into protective equipment and clothing, workers or safety managers can quickly use a smartphone app to exchange crucial information between the equipment and the phone.
Before starting the work day, Twiceme helps workers monitor equipment health through a structured self-check safety process per OSHA recommendations for head and fall harness protection. Using the Twiceme app, workers or safety managers interact with equipment to receive valuable data about the equipment and wearer, like when a harness was last inspected. This process helps better prepare workers for a safer day on the job.
Not only is the daily Twiceme self-check helpful for improving safety, but it also helps safety managers track equipment inventory. Today's equipment is often high-performance, technical, and expensive. Keeping track of these pieces of hardware can be difficult for teams, both small and large. Losing or misplacing equipment can increase company costs, and workers without proper equipment can’t work, which means hours or days of lost productivity. Using Twiceme, managers can quickly track equipment on the construction site or in storage. This ensures equipment ends up in the right place so that a company's assets are protected, and its workers are ready to work.
Twiceme can also be used during and/or after a workplace accident to support rescuers or first responders with situational awareness by providing location information to help them find people wearing the technology faster. Once on the scene, if a person is injured or incapacitated, rescuers use the app to access critical medical information about a person wearing the equipment, such as medicine allergies, to help the rescuers safely administer appropriate treatment. It is a vital feature in situations where the removal of a helmet can cause further injury to the wearer, as historically, industrial workers write emergency information on a piece of paper inside the helmet.
The result is significantly reduced response times, enhanced emergency communication, and, ultimately, safer workplace experiences.
Twiceme technology is distributed in equipment worldwide, including numerous products for construction professionals, like safety helmets and harnesses from leading worksite PPE brands, including Studson, Diamondback, Guardian, and Zero.
